The photo gallery of Meditop lunch symposium on "The limitations in HbA1c interpretation for Good Patient Care" in 40th Annual Conference of Medical Technology of Thailand (ACMTT) on 2 June 2016 at Ambassador City Jomtien Hotel, Pattaya, Chonburi.
By this honorly occasion, we invited Associate Prof. Vip Viprakasit to be our lecturer for the symposium with over 140 attendants both from private and government organizations.

The topic was about the background application of HbA1c in clinical diagnostics that the factors which might interfere on HbA1c measurement may affect on actual HbA1c test results or caused misinterpretation.
As HbA1c result did not reflect the patient's level of diabetic control because of a pathological condition that affected RBC metabolism especially hemoglobinpathies and iron deficiency anemia that affected on red blood cells turning over. In addition, Mr Vip advised on how to avoid the misleading report of HbA1c results to physicians.
